Chapter 1290 Who Is Innocent!
I had no idea how long I had been trapped. It could be a moment or ten thousand years.
The pitch-black darkness and the extremely chaotic Dao had already blurred his concept of time. Even his body could only be maintained in the state of soul due to the suppression of some mysterious power. His Dao body could not be reborn at all.
But it didn't matter. There was nothing else in front of him except the extreme black. It made no difference whether he had a body or not, or whether he wore clothes or not.
What made the Taoist priest mad the most was that he was not only deprived of his body but also of his five senses. Except for knowing clearly that he was still alive, he had no other means to prove this.
Just like now, he was yelling and cursing crazily, but he couldn't hear it at all, and he didn't know if anyone could detect the various "consolations" expressed in his mind fluctuations.
Being conscious was a good thing, but it made him extremely hateful.
He couldn't practice or sleep, and couldn't make himself faint or even commit suicide. He tasted every bit of loneliness in the darkness. This kind of torture would drive anyone crazy. He was very proud of himself for still keeping the bottom line of rationality. Even he didn't expect that he could hold on for so long.
Therefore, although he kept cursing, he was actually very excited. Because after experiencing a long and seemingly endless loneliness in the unchanging darkness, he finally welcomed something different - he clearly felt the previous space vibration.
Although it was very dangerous and almost killed him, the tearing of his soul moistened his dry heart like sweet spring water, letting him know that he really still existed.
He yelled like a madman, even if he was not sure whether he was doing what he thought he was doing, he was happy to do it.
He wanted to vent, and he wanted to attract the attention of others, no matter who it was, even the enemy, even Dao Yanming, as long as he could give him a reaction. He wanted a way out, whether it was life or death, either of which was ten thousand times better than the current state.
After an unknown amount of time, just when the Taoist priest was about to give up, a little white light suddenly lit up in the darkness in front of him.
Thinking that he had seen it wrong, the Taoist priest wanted to rub his eyes in disbelief, but then he remembered that he couldn't do it at all, but the black shadow in front of him made him startled, and a surge of ecstasy suddenly surged in his heart.
Hand.
Against the backdrop of the white light, he dimly saw his hand. Although it was translucent, the palm was indeed opening and closing slowly with his mind, which proved that what he saw was not an illusion, the hand was his, and the white light was real.
The Taoist priest, who was greatly inspired, wanted to get closer to the white light, he felt that it might be his only way out. But after trying for a long time, he didn't move at all. He didn't know whether the white light was retreating with him or he didn't move at all. The Taoist priest's excitement instantly cooled down by half.
[It's better than before. 】
The Taoist comforted himself in this way, and looked at his body happily in the dim light of the white light, and a sense of happiness arose spontaneously.
Only those who have experienced his predicament will know how happy it is to get something that you are used to once you lose it.
"If I wasn't sure that there was nothing here, I would definitely think you were God." The Taoist smiled at the white light, "Hey, if you think about it carefully, it's not impossible. I have worn it once, who knows if it will happen again. If you count it this way, you may really be God, then I am Adam? Hey, Lao Shang, if you are the real thing, hurry up and create an Eve for me. I am very familiar with the routine of spreading branches and leaves to benefit the world, so you don't have to worry about it! By the way, you don't have to let go of the snake. I have one myself, which is very useful and can bend and stretch!"
Talking nonsense, the Taoist twisted his hips hard. If he was not in the state of soul and body and couldn't show many details, he would have taken off his pants and thrown them away.
After twisting for a while, the Taoist stopped, and the crazy smile on his face gradually turned into a sneer, and he said with sarcasm: "It's a pity that you are not God, and you don't know what I'm talking about, right, Dao Yanming?"
The white light flashed, and a sigh sounded in his ears.
"I really don't know what you are talking about, but I am definitely not Dao Yanming."
The Taoist was startled, and then saw the white light suddenly spread, and the space around him became black and white intertwined. In a blink of an eye, black and white disappeared, replaced by green mountains, green waters, and a gentle breeze, and he sat in a pavilion on the top of the mountain.
Across the stone table, an elegant young man sat upright, with his mouth slightly pursed as if he was worried about something, and his black and white starry eyes stared at the Taoist without blinking.
"Who are you?"
The Taoist was a little confused, and then he woke up and suddenly widened his eyes.
"Are you Dao Yanxuan, the eldest disciple of Sanyuan Taoist?"
He didn't answer immediately, staring at the Taoist for a long time with a scrutinizing look, and then the young man nodded gently.
"It's really you!"
Taking a long breath, the Taoist priest asked in surprise: "It was you who trapped me for so long, not Dao Yanming?"
"Although Junior Brother is wrong, you should still respect him as Master, not call him by his name." Dao Yanxuan corrected calmly, "Besides, you should say that I saved you."
"Save me? Haven't you always wanted to kill me?" The Taoist priest was in doubt.
Nodding again, Dao Yanxuan said calmly: "That's right."
"Then why didn't you kill me?"
"The time has passed."
"What time?"
"The time to kill you."
"I...!"
After holding back the curse, the Taoist priest asked angrily: "Then why do you want to save me again?"
"Because you're useful."
"What's the use?"
"Great use."
"Brother, can we speak more cheerfully? If you don't think it's hard for me, I won't!"
"You should call me uncle."
"I | Damn it! I'm convinced!!"
Finally he couldn't hold back the curse, and the Taoist priest rubbed his forehead in pain. He was so tortured that he lost his temper.
If it weren't for the fact that his body was so empty that he couldn't do anything, he would have wanted to slap that handsome face that was three points more handsome than him.
Dao Yanxuan was still unmoved, and corrected him in a calm tone: "Misfortune comes from the mouth, and swearing is not good for others or yourself, especially when you and I are in this state, do you understand?"
"Okay, okay, I was wrong. I was really wrong. Isn't that okay?"
Raising his hand in apology, the Taoist priest asked helplessly: "Uncle Master, tell me, why did you save me? And the opportunity, when the opportunity passed, can we explain it clearly?"
There was another silence, and after a long time, Dao Yanxuan did not answer and asked: "If I ask you to kill that child, will you do it?"
"Child? Li Chuyi?" The Taoist priest's face suddenly darkened, "That's my apprentice, don't even think about it!"
"If you kill him in exchange for your freedom, would you be willing?" Dao Yanxuan asked again.
With a sneer, the Taoist priest sarcastically said: "Do you think I am Dao Yanming?"
"I said, you should call him Master."
"He designed Li Chuyi to kill me, and you asked me to call him Master. Do you think I'm that mean?"
The Taoist priest frowned coldly, Dao Yanxuan was slightly suffocated, sighed softly and stopped worrying.
"Then if I tell you that killing Li Chuyi will not only buy you your freedom, but also bring peace to all living beings in the Yin-Yang Kou, will you agree?"
"The plate is big enough!" The Taoist priest raised his brows, "That's not the case! What about all living beings, they have nothing to do with me! I only care about two people in the three realms, one is my wife, the other is my apprentice, and the others Life or death has nothing to do with me!"
"How come you are so cold-blooded and have no compassion at all?" Dao Yanxuan finally showed his dissatisfaction and frowned slightly.
The Taoist priest ignored him at all and sneered: "Compassion? Taking my disciple's life to exchange the luck of others is called compassion? Stop making trouble! If you are rich, you will benefit the world, and if you are poor, you will be alone. How much can you do? ! If I can’t live anymore and still want to save others, that’s not called compassion, that’s called stupidity. Do you think I’m a fool? "
"What about mercy?" Dao Yanxuan asked, "All living beings are innocent. Do you think it's not worth it to exchange the death of one person for the lives of countless people? Watching so many innocent people disappear just to save one person, you Don’t you have any compassion at all?”
"Stop mentioning innocence to me!"
Being poked in a painful spot, the Taoist priest slammed the table angrily.
"They are innocent, but I am not innocent? Who in the world is innocent like me? I am an honest man with a science degree. I live my life diligently. I finally got through my graduation interview and found a good employer. I am happily preparing to talk to my daughter. My friend announced the good news, and as soon as I took out the phone, a thunderbolt hit me. Who should I complain to? Do you know what is the saddest thing? That girl is not my girlfriend at all! It took me three years, nine months and twenty-five days to get the acceptance notice from my work unit before I had the courage to confess my love to him. You didn’t even give me a chance to get through. Lightning struck my phone as soon as it escaped. Return it to him. Damn it, who do you want me to talk to about this?"
The Taoist priest became angrier as he spoke and struck the table again.
"Also, just wear it. I am a liberal arts guy in the science class. He has read a lot and can accept it, but you can give me some tricks! If he wears it, he is either reborn or possessed. I am like Nezha. Dao Yanming, that old boy, just spelled it out! Surrounded by beauties in fine clothes and fine food, and unifying the country with titles and ministers, all of them have nothing to do with me. As soon as I landed on the ground, I didn't even see a blade of grass and I was felled by you, grandson. Strike with lightning, and do it ninety-nine times in a row! It’s hard to practice successfully and be proud of the world, but I still have to be sneaky, for fear of being discovered by you old boy! It’s hard to find a woman who understands me and loves me! Well, in the end, she was kidnapped by that old boy Dao Yanming and left to fend for herself in the real world. I don’t even know whether she is dead or alive! And my disciple, I treat him like his son! It's better for you to make every move to keep him from dying. What's more, if you want to kill him, it's time or not. How dare you ask me for mercy or innocence? Who is worse than us?"
The roar echoed for a moment and gradually dissipated. Dao Yanxuan fell silent. After a long time, he sighed softly, stretched out his hand and pushed forward. A teapot and two teacups appeared out of thin air on the table. One of them happened to fall into his hand and he pushed it slowly. Arrive in front of the Taoist priest.
"Drink tea."
The angry Taoist priest slapped the table: "If you don't want to drink, I want wine!"
